Malcom X’s mother was from Grenada. But what do we know about her? That her life was a mix of extraordinary and tragedy. Louise Norton Little (Langdon) was born in Grenada in 1897, her mother Edith was the daughter of two captured Nigerians who were being illegally sold into slavery. The Navy rescued the ship and Louise’s grandparents settled in Grenada, giving birth to their one child - Edith. Unfortunately Edith was raped by an older Scottish man as a pre-teen and became pregnant with Louise.
